Default Re: Rate the rifles

gotta love the Garands firepower gotta hate its lack of a detachable magazine and the fact that one could not 'top it off' after firing 3 or 4 shots. you had to fire off the remaining rounds in the clip and insert a new one or face your next adversary with a partial mag. I have to say that ANY semi-auto has a bolt action beat though. I'm not much into bolt action guns in any form though I do admire their accuracy in most cases.
